Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase and welcome to the AD-5000 User's Manual. This
manual describes the installation, calibration, setup, and operation of the AD-5000 weigh
scale indicator. The AD-5000 is a microprocessor based weight indicator with rugged
design and state-of-the-art technology. It is designed for use in industrial environments
to perform the following functions:
• Analog to Digital conversion (A/D) - converts the analog signal from a strain gauge
"load cell" to a numeric weight.
• Signal Processing - filters electrical and mechanical noise from the load cell signal
using electronic circuits and digital filtering.
• Basic Weighing - push button zero, tare functions (push button and keyboard tare),
display of gross or net weight and scale status, and transmission of weight data to a
printer and a computer.
• Additional Functions - trip level event monitor, programmable "Scale Basic”
functions, TTL level ‘setpoint’ inputs and outputs, and remote control via TTL inputs
or RS232 serial input.
The AD-5000's stainless-steel enclosure is designed for industrial environments and can
be used in wash down applications.
The AD-5000 has two bi-directional serial communication ports that are used for printer
output, bar code input, computer communications, and remote control. The serial ports
support RS232, RS422, RS485, and 20ma Current Loop communication.
The AD-5000 has one parallel TTL I/O port for output to a printer or for setpoint
input/output. The TTL inputs can be used for remote control (ZERO, TARE,
GROSS/NET, and PRINT).
Options available include, analog output, solid state relay board, counting program.

A&D5000 Users Manual version 4.0.a Built In Application Programs
Weigh-in / Weigh-out # 3
This program uses the ID memory for weigh-in / weigh-out transactions. An ID record
is created using the Weigh-in function. The Weigh-out function recalls the ID, calculates
Gross/Tare/Net of the transaction, prints the transaction, and adds the net weight to the
ID’s totals register. The ID data is saved for further weigh-in/weigh-out transactions, or
weigh-out only transactions. A sequential transaction number is maintained for printing
purposes.
Weigh-In
Press the F1 key. The display prompts "id". Enter up to 8 digits for the weigh-in ID and
then press the ENTER key. The scale weight is stored in the ID's tare register and print
page 3 is sent to the printer. If the ID has been weighed in but not weighed-out then "Err
20" is displayed. Press the CLEAR key to exit without changing the ID data, press the
ENTER key to enter the new ID data.
Weigh-Out
Press the F2 key. The display prompts "id". Enter up to 8 digits for the weigh-out ID
and then press the ENTER key. The indicator recalls the ID from memory, calculates
the gross, tare and net weights, totals the net weight and sends the weigh-out data (page
2) to the printer. If an ID is entered that is not found in memory the displays "Err 21".
Press the CLEAR key to exit the weigh-out function.
The print formats label “ GROSS” for weigh-in gross transactions, “(IN) TARE” for
weigh-in tare transactions, and “MEM TARE” to designate Memory tare for ID’s
recalled 2 or more times. Once an id has been weighed in and weighed out that id can be
weighed out multiple times without weighing back in every time. The tare weight Is
recalled from memory and used in the gross, tare, net calulations.

Scale Parameters
The scale parameters configure the AD-5000 for the weigh platform or load cell that it is
connected to. The preceding table titled “SCALE PARAMETERS” lists the scale
parameters and their factory settings. Use the “Field setting” column to record any
changes made to the factory default values.
Many of the following parameters are entered in terms of “graduations”. The full-scale
graduations can be found by dividing the full-scale weight by the count-by weight. For
example, if the scale is configured for 500.00kg x 0.05kg, the full-scale graduations is
500.00/0.05 = 10,000 graduations to full scale.
The numbers in parenthesis are the default factory settings.
